Summary

A sailor's song composed about a beloved ship, the 'Kia Ora', which was one of the ships in the fleet of the New Zealand Shipping Company. The cargo was whisky and the composer wishes he could have it all in Lewis, to share out amongst the people there.

The contributor learned the song from Donald Morrison.
